- Steam Link device - July 18 01:44 UTC: Updated build to fix compatibility issue with Steam Link firmware build 815
The Windows installer package may require an Internet connection to download the latest Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime if your PC does not already have it installed. If you do not have Internet access during installation, you can pre-install the runtime from Microsoft's website or use the portable version.
To update an existing installation, simply run the latest installer (for Windows) or replace the old app in your Applications folder (for Mac). For the portable Windows version, extract the latest version on top of your old folder.
To install on Steam Link hardware, extract the ZIP file to the root of a FAT32 flash drive, insert it into your Steam Link, then restart the Steam Link. Moonlight can run alongside official Steam Link streaming and other Steam Link apps.
Changes:
- Added network latency statistics to the performance overlay
- Improved audio quality during periods of packet loss (requires GeForce Experience 3.19 or later)
- Reduced video frame drops during periods of packet loss (requires GeForce Experience 3.22 or later)
- Fixed input capture issues on Windows if the stream starts in a non-foreground window
- Removed dependency on qwave.dll for Windows Server OSes
- AppImage build updated to a new baseline of Ubuntu 18.04 libraries
- Steam Link icon updated to new standard size of 116x116
- Updated community-contributed translations from Weblate
Known Issues:
- Versioning changes in recent Intel graphics drivers may cause Moonlight to disable HEVC streaming. See this bug report for a link to a fixed build.
- Location Services on macOS may cause periodic lag and stuttering on Wi-Fi due to background network scans. To avoid the issue, disable Location Services on your Mac by going to "System Preferences -> Security & Privacy -> Location Services"
- Touchscreen support can be buggy on Linux (X11) when mouse capture is enabled. You may need to enable remote desktop mouse mode for it to work correctly.
- Surface Pro X devices (and possibly other ARM devices) must be upgraded to Windows 10 2004 or later to avoid a video glitch
- In windowed mode on the Raspberry Pi, video does not move in sync with the window when dragged. This is a limitation of MMAL video overlays.
- In windowed mode on the Raspberry Pi, video will not display while the app does not have focus. This is required to prevent Moonlight's video overlay from rendering on top of other apps.
